wow

Interesting, looks like a mini computer. DJ, it would be possible to use as on-board computer in a robot using ARC? confused

It will be he showed us this a while back. When it was still in production.

i assume you load ezb on the memory card. right? then coneect any wireless mic, joystick, sound card, anything......the bot woould have to be big enought o fit it all inside right.

Would DJ have to port to linux? My understanding is there would be no support of this device with Windows OS's. Does that mean we would lose voice recognition? As I assume ARC is using Windows voice recognition to deliver commands?!

Hi All,

Yes, Raspberry Pi is Linux. I have not heard of any Windows support for it yet and I have been watching it. Very cool devices. There are other Voice Recognition and Speech to Text Engines available for Linux as well, but this would probably be a pretty big transition for ARC I believe. This could be very useful for some other things however and perfect size for onboard a bot.

:) The raspberry pi is considerably under powered for a full featured ARC, but it will suffice for a very minimal set of features. ARC is being ported to work under linux right now That's why i've been so been so busy!

Nice to hear form you DJ. Thought you were on a trip or something. Just how underpowered is it? I was so excited, now maybe not.
